540mm (width) x 270mm (length) 2009 marks the 90th anniversary of Enzo Ferrari's racing career. This framed piece was created as a commemorative tribute. As a child, Enzo is said to have dreamed of becoming an opera singer, a soccer journalist, and a racing driver. After World War I, the young Enzo set out to fulfill one of those dreams, heading to Torino and embarking on a journey into the automotive industry.
Enzo began his racing career at Torino CMN when he was just over 20 years old. At that time, he may have already had a vision of what Ferrari will become today. This piece tells the story of one night when Enzo's dream of building a car bearing his own name and winning a race finally became a reality.
On the right side of the frame, hanging as if floating in the glass, is a note. Its contents suggest it is a specification study document for wheel spinner design. This note may seem like a simple note, but let's delve into its true value.
Please pay attention to the illustration in the center. The details around the front and sides are likely tiny louvers. These details make you think they could be from that car. To the lower left, beneath an illustration of a small part, is the name "J. Colombo." It's a handwritten specification review written by the renowned design engineer known for the Alfa Romeo Tipo 158/9.
But here's another astonishing detail. Please pay attention to the red letters in the lower right. It reads "MUOVERSI." "Proceed immediately!" This is essentially the go-ahead for this review. Of course, it was written by Enzo Ferrari himself. You'll also notice an abbreviated version of his signature there.
Also, don't miss the several stamps on the surface of this document. A prancing horse is designed in the center, and you can see the words "Autoavio Costruzioni MODENA Enzo Ferrari," the predecessor of Ferrari. The Ferrari 125 finally appeared in 1947. The moment before its birth, the day Colombo and Enzo had a heated discussion. This piece of paper tells us the moment when Ferrari history began to move.
This is an exceptional treasure for Ferrari fans and collectors.
